Can a DNA test make you wear sunscreen?
NCT ID NCT03509467
Summary
This study tested whether telling people about their genetic risk for skin cancer would change their sun safety habits. Over 2,000 adults, including Hispanic and non-Hispanic white participants, provided a saliva sample for genetic testing. Researchers then measured if receiving personalized risk information led to better sun protection, like wearing hats and sunscreen, compared to those who did not get this information.
